Trappe's Community Day was reschedule from last Saturday to this Saturday due to the threat of inclement weather.

Come out this Saturday, Sept. 26, to enjoy all the same games and fun at Water Works Park, on West First Avenue, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. There will be plenty of things for kids to enjoy including a petting zoo, pony rides, clowns, a rock climbing wall, giant slides and more.

The event is free. For a full list of activities, visit http://www.trappeborough.com/documents/trappe_days_2009_schedule.pdf

Trappe is also looking for residents to participate in its PACE program. Standing for Property, Streets, Traffic & Safety Committee, the program requires those interested to enroll and get a free sticker that they then place in their rear window.

Participants sign a pledge to drive within the speed limit, stop for pedestrians and drive courteously in the borough.

"PACE Car drivers act as 'moving speed bumps', helping to slow speeding vehicles on residential roadways," says Borough Councilwoman Cathy Johnson. "And the PACE Car Stickers remind all to respect traffic laws in our community."

The borough's speed limit is 25 mph on most roads.
